Investigators say in addition to missing a licence plate, the trailer was full of rust and in poor mechanical condition. They say officers spoke with the driver and detected the smell of alcohol.
Investigators say the driver failed a roadside breath test and was subsequently arrested.
A 50-year-old man from Innisfil is facing a number of charges and will appear in a Guelph court on May 23.
In the meantime, his vehicle was impounded for a week and his driver’s licence was suspended for three months.
